Depending on which chapter of my life you came to know me in, you may or may not know that I was pretty involved in the theatre. Deeply. Heavily. Sickeningly. I graduated in it, for the pity’s sake.
Since 2005, however, I have been only cursorily involved in a few things. Lately though, I’ve seen a lot of shows… more in the past two months than in the past year, I think…
First of all, let me apologize for my lack of posting in this fine month of August. I realize that many of you rely on WhiteEyebrows.com for your daily dose of propaganda, intellectual stimulation, humor and mirth, and so I profusely apologize for the acute absence of said things this past week. (Especially the mirth)
This blog is going to be a bit of a scattered catch-up (as opposed to a Catsup or Ketchup).
I love airports. They are exciting. Everyone is either going somewhere or coming back from somewhere. There is movement. There is anticipation.
Then there’s also exhaustion… lots and lots of exhaustion.
I’ve often wondered why some business travelers insist on wearing suits and ties onto the airplane. My brother-in-law informs me that this is because they’re always worried about who they might meet, and want to look professional. I think they are plain nuts! Especially if they are flying coach with we common folk.
The following video is a montage of photographs taken in Arizona by some LDS photographers. They do a really good job of capturing the humanity, essence, and beauty of the Christian message.
Enjoy!

Well, I’m more than halfway through my vacation, and I am proud to report that I have stimulated the economy now in 3 states.
President Bush and our lovely Congress gave we single people $600 to stimulate the economy, so here is a small sampling of my economic stimulus activities:
Many people ask, “if God exists and loves as much as everyone says he does, why doesn’t he speak to us like he did in biblical times?”
This video of Jeffrey Holland, an Elder of my church, gives an incredibly poignant summation of what I believe regarding the necessity of an open scriptural canon as evidence that God truly does love us… (ignore the annoying musical underscoring)

A few days ago, I was engaging in a new sport that my older brother introduced me to: personal ad perusal.
Before you get the wrong idea, let me explain this sport… it’s not that you peruse the personal ads to actually find someone to date. You peruse the personal ads to:
Now back to our regularly scheduled blog… I was participating in this sport when I ran across the phrase “I’m 420 friendly.” Not knowing what this meant, I turned directly to the font of all knowledge and truth: Google.
Come to find out, “420” is a numerical euphemism for marajuana use.
So last night I worked a miracle… I know, I know, you’re not supposed to cast your pearls before swine, but this one is just too good not to blog about.
Yesterday I mentioned that I will be leaving for vacation. Well, last night when I was packing I got this wild, hair-brained idea… Could I — just could I — pack everything into one carry on? Business travelers do it all of the time, so why can’t I? If I am ever to travel for business, I’ll need to master this art anyway…
Earlier this year, I wrote about the coming economic storms and how the word “bagel” was my euphemism for a recession.
Well, here we are about six months later and we still have not had an official bagel yet – that we know of – but we are enjoying record high prices on almost every staple of life, from gas to food to iPhones…. oh wait… iPhones are cheaper than they’ve ever been. Never mind on the whole “staples of life” bit.
